Ia more modern times the oppressive portion of this prerogative has been abandoned, and the f: , rmers, grateful for this concessien, have voluet trily con tinued to furnish the requisite means of transport whenever a battue is contemplated. Necessarily the vehicles are of a very elementary description, but the practice is indicative of good feeling between Sovereign and subject, and, as such, importance is rightly attached to its maintenance. Of the care riages, all ordinary chars a bane of the country, nearly 20 were required to convey the members of the Royal party— English, Russian, and Danish— to their destination, and while these were assent. biing the principal personages included in the circle at Fredensborg amused themselves by forming groups on the castle steps for the purpose of being photographed. High over head, through the open door leading to the entrance hall, the pale uniforms of the Royal Horse Guards were dimly discernible in the shade within, their cuirasses now and then gleaming like sparks of fire as chance movements of the wearers brought them within the influence of a ray of light. Upon the level of the courtyard the band of the regiment was stationed, and performed appropriate musical selections. The shooting party consisted of his Majesty the King of Denmark, his Royal Highness the Prince of \Vales, all the prin cipal officers of the Danish and English households, and the following nobles and gentlemen in the suite of the Russian Grand Duke :—Prince Benie. tinski, Count Woronzow, Gen. Richter, Dr Chestiff, and Capt. Bosley. With few exceptions the party were dressed in light shooting costume, some wear. ing knickerbockers, and others long hunting boots. The most conspicuous exception from the prevalent shade of gray was probably Col. Keppel, who apa peered in a suit of dark velvet. His Royal High ness the Prince of Wales wore his favourite round hat and plain shooting coat, the facsimile of those which may be seen in the Sandringham portraits. The Crown Prince of Denmark and the Russian Grand Duke were not of the party. Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales came as far as the door of the Palace to wish success to the expedition —and the Queen of Denmark with the younger members of her family descended nearly to the bot tom of the outer staircase, and appeared to interest herself very much in all the arrangements. The cortege having been marshalled in order left the Polace yard under a salute from the foot guards on duty, preceded by two forest rangers for the dis trict, whose experience no doubt proved very vain' able during the day, though their costume was of the strangest. In their stiff brown hats, somewhat of the high wide• awake pattern, these rangers car ried feathers, having in the centre an iris, similar to that visible ou the tail of a peacock. What would otherwise have been very suggestive of a livery coat acquired a certain dignity from the addition of a hunting knife to topboots already worn by the bearer. In the second carriage, immediately fol• lowing these rangers, the King and the Prince of Wales rode, and, in common with the rest of the hunt, was guided by the country driver of horses, furnished in the manner :already described. The cortege proceeded in the direction of Elsinore, and became so much interested in the sport that, although the dinner had been ordered for 7 o'clock, it was nearly 8 before they were able to reach the Palace on their return. • The game in the Danish forests is limited pretty much to deer, hares, and. foxes. Of these the gross return at the end of the day showed that 10 foxes, 6 hares, and 17 stags had been killed, 2 hares and a stag falling to the gun of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and the .....,* being i ...1....a b.ly vr .11 a is> r:i hn fna nnionz the retinue. Gen. Knoliys was among the most euccesse ful of the individual shots. In the course of the afternoon, and while the hunting party was absent in one direction, a second circle of notabilities issued from Fredensborg, with the object of paying a visit to the Castle of Fredes ricksborg, which lies at the distance of about 6 miles from there. Among those occupying seats in the Royal carriages were the Queen of Denmark, and her father, the Landegrave of Hesse, her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales, the Russian Grand Duke and his fiancee the Princess Dagmar, the Crown Prince of Denmark, 8:c. The drive to Fredea ricksborg lies through charming scenery ; at every turn of the road distinct views are commanded of the lovely Essom Lake, which can be reached in a very few minutes from the Palace, and affords in itsel opportunities of enjoyment almost boundless to pleasure seekers. The Palace of Fredericksborg shoots up from the midst of a miniature lake, or sheet of ornamental water, and, though the archia tecture is very simple, the effect produced upon the spectators of the fairy-like structure that seems to rise out of the water is exceedingly striking. The quaint outline of the building is familiar to many who have never been in Denmark through the draw ing of its proportions made by Mr Reichardt, one of the best of the Danish modern artists—a drawing which is so accurate in detail and in proportions that it has served as the basis for all the designs in cut glass and china into which this historic Frede ricksborg Slot has been imported. The Royal party spent more than an hour in examining the castle and in walking about the grounds adjoining, returning to Fredensborg in time for dinner. Inter nally there is little now to be seen at Fredericks borg, the palace having been gutted by fire in 1859, and its valuable picture gallery, renowned through. out Europe, in a great measure destroyed. Its boasts, however, a church probably unique in the richness and peculiarity of its decorations, the restoration of which, exactly as first constructed in 1619, was com pleted in the course of the year 1863. Upon a pane of glass in one of the windows in the gallery may be seen the names of the King, Queen, and younger members of the Royal family of Denmark, and likewise those of the Prince and Princess of Wales, inscribed there on one of the days last month that the Royal party drove across privately to view the edifice, before the visit to Sweden was under taken. The excursion today was altogether of a family nature. Oa the part of the few spectators who witnessed their arrival no attempt was made to interfere with its privacy. Any curiosity which was exhibited had reference to the Russian Grand Duke, the future husband of the Princess Dagmar, who is a young man of slight and rather delicate frame—taller, probably, than the Prince of Wales, but wanting the breadth of chest and shoulder which distinguishes his Royal Highness. Like the majority of his countrymen the Russian Prince is an excellent linguist, conversing fluently, when he does sustain a conversation, in English, French, or German. Yesterday he was dressed with brown hat, light walking trousers, and loose overcoat, and while en route drove with the Princess Dagmar and other members of the Danish Royal family in a light wagonette. The Crown Prince of Denmark, as usual, drove his own phaeton, having Leside him the Princess of Wales, who, to all appearance, had rec overed from the fatigue of her late journey, and jacket, hand-, m l oo ked charmingly. Her Royal 'Highness wore a B h o at white feather, e a dress. clo Tartan f orme d th e w ly it braided, a wh and a mauve a conspicuous element in the dress of her younger sister, the Princess Thyra, and also of the little Prince Waldemar, who in any station of life would be accounted a remarkably fine boy, and, with all a boy's partiality for horses, would manifestly rather have stayed with the equipages than made acquaints ante with the glories and art treasures of the Fredericksborg Chapel. The understanding at present is that the Russian Grand Duke will leave Denmark on Tuesday next, on which day also another Prince, the infant son of their Royal Highnesses the_Prince and Princess of Wales, is to begin his homeward journey. ~,. PRICE STAMPED ....sd. Davenport Brothers, TO TUE EDITOR OF THE SVN. Srn,—A seance by the Brothers DAvenpott and Mr W. Fay took place iu my house yesterday, in presence of Lord Bury, Sir Charles Nicholson, Sir John Gardiner, Sir C. Lennox Wyke, Rev. E. 11. Newenham, Rev. W. Ellis, Cap'. E. A. Ingle&ld, Messrs Chas. Reade, Jas. Matthews, Algernon Borthwick, I, Willes, H, E. Ormerod, J. W. Kaye, J. A. Bostock, W. J. Ridout, Robert Bell, J. N. Mangles, H. M. Dunphy, W. Tyler Smith, M.D., E. Tyler Smith, T.L. Coward, John Brown, M D., Robt. Chambers, and Dion Boucicault. Tho room in which the meeting was held i 1 a large draw ing-room, from which all the furniture had been previously removed, excepting the carpet, a chandelier, a small table, a sofa, a pedestal, and 26 cane bottomed chairs. At 2 o'clock six of the above party arrived, and the room was subjected to careful scrutiny. It was suggested that a cabinet, to be used by the Brothers Davenport, but then erected in an adjacent room, should ba removed into the front room and placed in a spot selected by ourselves. This was done by our party, but in the process we displaced a portion of this piece of furniture, thus enabling us to exa mine its material and structure before we mended it. At 3 o'clock our party was fully assembled and continued the scru tiny. We sent . .to a neighbouring musicseller for six guitars and two tambourines, so that the implements to be used should not be those with which the operators NS ero familiar. At half past three the Brothers Davenport and Mr Fay arrived and found that we had altered their ar rangemants, by changing the room which they had previ ously selected for their manifestations. The seance then began by an examination of the dress and persons of the Brothers Davenport, and it was certified that no apparatus or other contrivance was concealed on or about their per sons. They entered the' cabinet and sat facing each other. Captain Inglefield then, with a new rope provided by ourselves, tied Mr W. Davenport hand and foot, with his hands behind his back, and then bound him firmly to the seat where he sat. Lord Bury, in like manner, se cured Mr. I. Davenport. The knots on these ligatures were then fastened with sealing wax and a seal was affixed. A guitar, violin, tambourine, two bells, and a brass trumpet, were placed on the floor of the cabinet. The doors were then closed, and a sufficient light was permitted in the room to enable us to see what followed. I shall omit any detailed account of the Babel of sounds which arose in the cabinet, and the violence with which the doors were repeatedly burst open and the instruments expelled ; the hands ap pearing, as usual, at a lozenge-shaped orifice in the centre door of the cabinet. The following incidents seem to us particularly worthy of note :—While Lord Bury was stoop ing inside the cabinet, the door being open, and the two operators seen there sealed and bound, a detached hand was clearly observed to descend upon him, and he started back, remarking that a hand had struck him. Again, in the full light of the gas chandelier, and during an interval in the seance, the doors of the cabinet being open, and while the ligatures of the Brothers Davenport were being examined, a very white, thin, female hand and wrist quivered for several seconds in the air above. This appearance drew a general exclamation from all the party. Sir Charles Wyke now entered the cabinet and sat between the two young men, his hands being right and left on each, and secured to them. The doors were then closed and tha Babel of sound recommenced. Several hands appeared at the orifice, among them the hands of a child. After a space Sir Charles returned amongst us and stated that while he held the two brothers several hands touched his face and pulled his hair ; the instruments at his feet crept up, played round his body and over his head, one of them lodging eventually on his shoulders. During the foregoing incidents the hands which appeared were touched and grasped by Captain Inglefield, and he stated that to the touch they were ap parently human hands, though they passed away from his grasp. I omit mentioning other phenomena ; an account of which has already been rendered elsewhere. The next part of the seance was performed in the dark. One of the Messrs Davenport and Mr Fay seated themselves amongst us. Two ropes were thrown at their feet, and in two minutes and a half they were found tied hand and foot, their hands behind their backs bound tightly to their chairs, and their chairs bound to an adjacent table. While this process was going on the guitar rose from the table, and swung or fhated round the room and over the heads of the party, and lightly touching some. Now a phosphoric light shot from side to side over our heads; the laps and hands and shoulders of several were simultaneously touched, struck, or pawed by hands, the guitar meanwhile sailing round ,he room, now near the ceiling, and then scuffing on the head and shoulders of some luckless wight. The bells whisked here and there, and a light thrumming was main tained on the violin. The two tambourines seemed to roll hither and thither on the floor, now shaking it violently, and now visiting the knees and hands of our circle—all these t0reg01... 5 beim?. simulta neous. Mr Rideout, holding a tambourins, requested it might be plucked from his hand; it was almost simulta neously taken from him. At the same time Lord Bury made a similar request, and a forcible attempt to pluck a tam bourine from his grasp was made, which he resisted. Mr Fay then asked that his coat should be removed. We heard instantly a violent twitch; and here occurred the most re■ markable fact. A light was struck before the coat had quite left Mr Fay's person, and it was seen quitting him, plucke3 off him upwards. It flew up to the chandelier, where it hung for a moment,and then fell to the ground. Mr Fay was seen meanwhile bound hand and foot as before. One of our party now divested himself of his coat, and it was placed on the table. The light was extinguished, and this coat was rushed on to Mr Fay's back with equal rapidity. During the above occurrences in the dark we placed a sheet of paper under the feet of the two operators, and drew with a pencil an outline around them, to the end that if they moved it might be detected, They of their own accord offered to have their hands filled with flour or any other similar substance, to prove they made no use of them, but this precaution was deemed unnecessary. We required them, however, to count from one to twelve repeatedly, that their voices con stantly heard might certify to us that they were in the places where they were tied. Each of our own party held his neighbour firmly, so that no one could move without two adjacent neighbours being aware of it. At the termination of this seance a general conversation took place on the subject of what we had heard and wit nessed. Lord Bury suggested that the general opinion seemed to be that we should assure the Brothers Davenport and Mr W. Fay that, after a very stringent trial and strict scrutiny of the proceedings, the gentlemen present could arrive at no other conclusion than that there was no trace of trickery in any form, and certainly there were neither con federates nor machinery, and that all those who had wit nessed the result would freely state in the society in which they moved that, so far as their investigations enable them to form an opinion, the phenomena which had taken place in their presence were not the product of legerdemain, This suggestion was promptly acceded to by all present. Betore leaving this question, in which my name has accidentally been mixed up, I may be permitted to ob serve that I have no belief in what is called spiritualism, and nothing I have seen inclines me to believe in it ; indeed, the puerility of some of the demonstrations would suffi ciently alienate such a theory; but I do believe that we have not quite exploded the realms of natural philosophy— that this enterprise of thought has of late years been con fined to useful inventions, and we are content at last to think that the laws of nature are finite, ascertained, and limited to the scope of our knowledge. A very great number of worthy persons seeing such phenomena as I have detailed ascribe them to supernatural agency; others wander around the subject in doubt ; but as it engages seriously the feeling and earnest thought of so large a number in Europe and America, is it a subject which scientific men are justified in treating with the neglect of contempt ? Some persons think that the requirement of ,darkness seems to infer trickery. Is not a dark chamber essential. in the process of photography ? And what would we reply to him who should say, " I believe photography to be a humbug ; do it all in the light, and I will believe ; not till then." It is true that we know why darkness is necessary to the production of the sun picture; and if scientific men will subject these phenomena to analysis we shall find out why darkness is essential to such siarlifestations.—Yours obediently, DION DOIJCICAULT. 326, Regent-street, Oct. 12. ELOPEMENT.—The Boulogne 7imes has the following story of an elopement :—" It is very long since the Flaneurs of Boulogne have been gratified by the scandal of an elopement, and we regret that last week fur nished forth a case, which may provide some business for Sir J. P. Wilde. A gallant son of Mars, Captain M—, whose better half is in England, seems to have won the affection of a young English demoiselle residing in the Rue Royale, who had, however, another string to her bow, whose attentions were very assiduous and somewhat in convenient to the captain and his fair inamorada. On Thursday last the loving couple had, it is supposed, deter mined to enjoy a tour either to Paris or the interior, and the last train in the evening was to bear them from hence. A difficulty presented itself; the single gentleman suitor intervened with a proposition to meet the lady fair; and spend an agreeable evening with her. She was non plussed, and sought the captain's aid, who went to work with stratagem. He invited the loving bachelor to gowith him to the theatre and witness " Faust," sucessfully urg ing him to go. He was deservedly punished for preferring the captain's society to the ladye fair. In the course of to 'a quarter of an hour the ca p tain left his stall, promising return in five minutes. Time passed, and he returned no more, lie bad AMU."

The card this morning promised abundance of racing, but dil not exhibit any of those so-called " certainties" so delightful to a racing man's eye. In the Oatlands Plate Saccharometer showed somewhat of his old form by defeat ing the field opposed to him, among whom were Merry Hart, Clarior, and Principal, very easily. He will probably be a favourite for the Cambridgeshire. A good looking Trumpeter colt carried off the 2-yr-old Handicap Sweepstakes very cleverly, and the issue of the 3-yr-old Handicap resulted, after a very fine race, in a dead heat between Attraction, Lytham, and Gownsman, an ex ample of good handicapping not often seen. Koenig, receiv ing 71b from Gardevisure,reversed the Stockbridge running, winning rather easily at last, the mare bolting in among the crowd on the badly kept course at the finish. A respect able woman was knocked down and a good deal bruised by Gardevisure, and we trust this accident may direct the at tention of the authorities to the way in which the crowd are permitted to trespass on the course during the running, ac tually impeding the view from the judge's chair, and lead.. ing as in this case to what might have been a serious acci dent. There was a second dead heat this afternoon in the race for the Bedford Stakes between Miriflor, another of the dreaded French division, and Mr Bowes's Klarinska. The deciding one was won after a fine set to by the French colt, and that for the Handicap Sweepstakes by Gownsman.

The three from this point finished a splendid nice home, which terminated in a dead heat be tween the three; the Beadle was fourth, beaten a head only from the others, Confederate fifth, Lyra sixth, and Antidote next. • Deciding Heat—Betting-5 to 4 agst Gownsman, 2to 1 1 agst Attraction, and 3 to 1 agst Lytham.

If this train had gone at ten minutes past one on tho Sunday morning instead of at ten minutes to ono in tho day then this act of Parliament would have applied. Mr. Arnold said there was nothing in the Police Act to prevent that. It would not have been an offence as this was, Mr Child remarked the serving between one and four was merely a statutory provision of this act. This act pressed very hard upon his client and persons in his posi tion. He exercised the greatest scrutiny and took every reasonable precaution and served only the persons that he believed had passed through and taken tickets, and he had complied with all that the act of Parliament put upon him. Mr Arnold said this was quite clear that five persons out of the 30 served did not leave the station by rail, and there fore were not travellers ; yet Mr Fisher had acted with good faith on the occasion. Supposing a man left his house in a cab with luggage and stopped at a public house, and said ho was a traveller, and insisted upon being served with refreshment ? Mr Child said he would be considered a traveller, and he himself in the same position should think himself en• led to the privileges of one. Mr Arnold observed a source of conflict would arise from that; the law would become a dead letter. If a man in such a case was really a traveller then this law as applied to large towns like London would become quite an absurdity. Every innkeeper was bound to supply refresh ment either in board or victuals, and hence the name of licensed victuallers; but in the present day these did not seem to be required, but beer and gin. The innkeeper was to find meat and drink for the wayfarer. The old law .had been carried into the new licences, and thus it became an absurdity. It was a wonder that something had not been adopted by the legislature, and that the law in this case should remain exactly as it was hundreds of years ago. There should be a distinction between London public-houses and country inns. Mr Child said he quoted his argument to show that the legislature intended that persons arriving at railway sta tions should have the privileges mentioned in this last clause, and that persons departing from railway stations should be deemed travellers. Mr Arnold observed that there was nothing said about travellers; it was persons. Mr Child said, although the word traveller was not used, still, from the construction of the act, it was clearly the in. tention of the legislature to apply it to persons arriving at or departing from railway stations. It pointed to them, and meant them as travellers. Mr Arnold—lf the act had used the word " traveller," then Mr Child's argument would have appl:Ed to the case in point. Mr Child submitted the case he had prepared, and it hiving been approved of by Inspecter Howard. Mr Arnold said he should submit it to his colleague, and Mr Fisher was bound over in £2O to prosecute the case in the Court of Queen's Bench. It was perfectly understood that the police would not again interfere till it was decided, and that Mr Fisher should use the utmost caution on the occasion of serving, Mr. Alderman Salomons, M.P., and his Constituents. Last evening Mr Alderman Salomons met his constitu ents at the Lecture-hall, Greenwich, to render his annual account of his stewardship. The hall was pretty well filled but was by means crowded. Dr. Purvis was called to the chair. Mr Alderman SALOMONS, who was received with cheers said the last session had been called a nothing session— but he found that,while in 1863, 125 public acts were passed, in 1864, there 121; while there were 329 private acts against 238 in 1863. But this led to the question, what did Parliament meet for ? Parliament did not meet for what might be celled sensation business. Happily for all the great questions were now settled, and Parliament now met to improve the laws, and to deal with financial questions. It they looked to the legislation of late years, they would find that there had been a constant tendency to the im provement of the laws of the country and to the ease of the burdens of the people. Last year they had a surplus re venue of two mill ons and a half, and during the session taxes had been reduced to the amount of three millions and a half, One great question had arisen during the session, the Danish question. The session opened under gloomy circumstances. They all felt deeply interested in the fate of Denmark. The German powers were pressing upon it, and it became a question whether we should not be obliged by the treaty of 1852 to make common cause with Denmark. The Government, however, wisely proposed a conference. and tho Danes Llinn.laniven VIC11:3 aceinnintblr, h,. cue yin, - in which that conference ended. The course taken by the Government was challenged by the opposition,and there was a great party struggle on the motion of Mr Disraeli " that the conduct of the Government had lowered the just influ• once of this country in the councils of Europe, and thereby diminished the securities for peace." He could not have brought himself to vote for such a motion as that. (Cheers.) That was the great question of last session. Every other question paled before it. They had several other questions —proposals for reform on a small scale—on all of which he voted in accordance with his principles. After all, the ques tion of reform in Parliament was a question that belonged to the electors. If they were in earnest in the matter it would make progress, but it never would make progress if the people remained equally balanced and divided upon it. He regretted to find that the civil war across the Atlantic s till continued. He had long thought that the governments of Europe might interfere, and he thought that they might now interfere by negotiation—(Cries of " No.")—not inter vention. He had been always against intervention. While the Government had acted on the principle of non-inter vention they had upheld the dignity of the country, and had shown that they were determined to protect our flag. One species of legislation he had always promoted, and that was. all that tended to promote the social comfort and well being of the people. Under this category he included edu cation. The education of the children of the poorer classes had made great progress, In 1859, the number of children attending the schools which were aided by Government was 461,445, and they had gradually increased, until in 1863 they were 1,057,426. And now, reverting to another subject, the subject of trade. In 1861 they had the commercial treaty with France. Adverting to that subject led him to remark that he regretted the observations that had recently been made in depreciation of the ruler of that country, We had only to speak of him as regarded his conduct and good faith towards his allies. The mode in which he conducted the affairs of France was a matter between him and his people. The Emperor Napoleon had shown good faith towards this country, and a great deal of the good feeling between Englishmen and Frenchmen was owing to the political conduct of the Emperor. He never met the Era peror Alen he was in this country before he became Emperor, but he was introduced to him while he was President, and he said to him, "When you return you may assure your countrymen that I never shall forget the asylum I received in England, and I shall do my best to promote the best un derstanding between England and France." Looking back to what had taken place in the last five • or six years he th oug ht they might fairly say that the present Parliament had promoted peace, and it had reduced taxation to the amount of not less than ten millions a year. They might ask whether he had done anything himself. Well he might tell them that the great art in the House of Commons was not to talk but to hold your tongue. There were plenty of persons to talk and but few that the house was willing often to listen to. The house however would always listen to any member who was thought to have special information on any particular subject; and there were one or two subjects to which he had given special attention which he had ven tured to bring forward in the house. One was the justice of Government being required to contribute to the local rates and taxes in respect to any establishment it might have in any particular parish. He believed there were many mem bers who were now disposed to pay attention to the ques tion, and he trusted that next session he should be enabled to bring forward with a chance of success a measure which would put Government establishments on the same footing as private manufacturing establishments. Another question which he was desirous of bringing forward was the increas ing necessity for better roads and additional bridges in the metropolis. He could not conceive any thing more absur( more barbarous, or more injurious to the working popula tion than that they should be attempting to force the whole of the traffic of the eastern part of London over one single bridge. It had a paralysing effect on the population. Now that the proprietors of Southwark-bridge were inclined to take a reasonable sum for it, ha trusted that some arrange ment would be made by the corporation to secure its being opened to the public. In conclusion, the hon. member said he was ready to answer any question that might be put to him, and he trusted that, having had a lease for seven years, when he came before them, as he probably shortly should, for a renewal, they would consider that he had been a good tenant and was deserving of their confidence. Mr HOLLAND asked the hon. member if he included Creek-bridge amongst those he intended to endeavour to throw open. Mr Alderman SALOMONS replied that he did. Mr ROCK then moved—" That this meeting having heard the statement of Mr Alderman Salomons, hereby records its appreciation of his services during the past session of Parliament, and its continued confidence in him as one of the representatives of the borough." Mr BASS seconded, and the motion passed with acclama tion. A vote of thanks was then given to Dr. Purvis for his =duct LA the chair, and the meeting separated. SCRATCHINGS AT NEWMARKET.

It will be remembered that a few days since Mr, Arnold gave his decision, concurrently with that of his brother magistrate at the Westminster Police-court in a case of the legality of considering persons departing from railway stations as travellers. The question had arisen out of a complaint against Mr. Robert Fisher, proprietor of the refreshment-rooms at the Victoria station, Pimlico, and on judgment being pronounced and the defendant convicted, Mr. Child, solicitor to the Licensed Victuallers' Protection Society, availed himself of a suggestion thrown oat by the magistrate, and said he should like to state a case and take it up for decision to a superior court, but before doing so he begged to call the attention of the magistrates to the 27th and 28th Victoria, cap. 64, sec. 10, an act passed last session of Parliament, for the regulation of refreshment. houses, the last section of which says, " Nothing heroin contained shall apply to the sale at a railway station between the hours cf . one and four o'clock in the morning of excis. able liquors or refreshments to persons arriving at or de parting from such station by railroad." Mr. Arnold upon this begged it to be considered that his decision had not been given, and took time to see whether it would haveany bearing on the matter at present under consideration ; and yesterday Mr. Child again attended to ascertain the magis trate's views on the subject, and, should his decision be adverse, to state a case, and enter into the necessary recog nisances to have the matter decided in the Court of Queen's Bench. Mr. Arnold said he had considered the clause of the act of Parliament referred to by Mr Child, and he did not think it had any bearing upon the question before him, espe cially as the latter part of the sth section of the very same act sa id—" Nothing herein contained shall authorise a licensed victualler to sell exciseable liquors, on any Sunday, Christmas -day, Good Friday, or day appointed for public fast or thanksgiving or otherwise than during the times at w hich he is now a uthoris ed by law to sell the sa me, or au thorise any oth er p erson to sell exciseable li q uors, k eep open an y refreshment h ouse, or sell refreshments ot herwise than at the times a nd u p on the conditions prescribed by th e acts ma gistrate) thought Mr Child could use of P a rliament (Patrhleiawmoerntthiyn that behalf made.'' The only way in which the 10th section would be to found an argument upon it, that if persons a rriving at railway stations w ere t rave ll ers , then persons depa rtin g from stations were travellers. Mr Child remarked that was precisely what he intended to do. If perso ns arriving were travellers, so were those departing. Mr Arnold said the act of Parliament did not speak of them as travellers. It made an exception for persons" arriving at and departing from, but it did not designate them as travellers. .The argument cut both ways. ps his opinion might be erroneous that a person allowed and in fact compelled to e finished. his journey. arriving Pelia at a railway station was a . traveller. It might be ; it did not treat these persons that he was no longer in the situation of a traveller to t t iao i t swn a aba d ap r p efreshment to travellers then there He did ngasoi whom vtte:harvie nefak: travellers. publican the Ise section e: would have been a strong arment ; but the section did not throw any light upon the present . case, which seemed, from the correspondence going . on in the newspapers, to have excited considerable attention and interest ; and the general supposition seemed to be that a person intending to go by a railway became a traveller the moment he left his house for the purpose of going ito the station, whether in a cab, his own carriage, omnib us, or ▪ n any other way. It that were the case the person would have a right t o s t op a t any public house on the road and receive refreshm en t, an d th e result would be that all th e public▪ -houses would be opened at all hours would let them in, and thus th e law relating to Sunday w ould be a dead l e tt er i n a l arge town, c persons like London, for i ns tance. He and his c o ll eague (Mr Selfe) still retained it as their opini▪ on that a per son go ing to a rail way station under ordinarycircumstances was not a travel lwerouulnd not pretend eprileatednbd to eguna journey. B u t a t th e same time he decide that any pers o n might not be a traveller, and that there might not be exceptional cases. Suppose a person arrived at the Great Western Railway station, and then took a cab to Victoria, he thought that would be an exceptional case. Their d ec i s i on , therefore, was that the parties in thi▪ s case who came to the station were not travellers in the meaning of the Police Act, under which the summons bad been taken out. Mr Child observed that ever since the passing of this atatuto his worship was a are that there had been a difd-
